triger replacement?

I was starting my saw(Stihl 028AV Super) and put my foot through the handel wile on the ground and started it. Removing my foot, i caught the triger and broket it off. Just cant see as to how to replace it. How far do i have to tear it down to get to the triger?

Very simple, Depending on how new your saws is, towards the back of the handle on the very end. There is one bolt. You will either need a flat tipped screw driver or a T25 Torx bit. Remove this screw. Do not lose it. lift the back of the handle up to about a 45 degree angle and then pull away from saw. Now your lock trigger and throttle trigger are exposed. Pay attention as to how the spring is in there. Just get a new trigger and replace.
